Big Sky Cinema in Dillon is closing after decades and the building is being sold to become a Taco Bell. I don’t live in Dillon, but this still feels personal. When a town loses its movie theater to a fast food chain, something has been decided for that town without its permission.
I’m not against Taco Bell. I’ve eaten there. But there are already places to get a burrito in Dillon. There was only one place to see a movie. Now there will be zero places to see a movie and two places to get a burrito. The math does not favor culture.
